They are thus translated in the _Beauties of England and Wales_ (1767):--

"In Holland stands Crowland

Built on dirty low land.

Where you'll find, if you go,

The wine's but so so;

The blades of the hay

Are like swords one may say,

The beds are like stones,

And break a man's bones;

The men rough and sturdy,

Compliments will afford me

But bid you good b'w'y,

When both hungry and dry."
